Dear Students and Parents,
A great way to inspire yourself or your child is to attend a concert! Fortunately, we've got a few diverse and wonderful opportunities within Wayne County this week and in November. Check them out! I hope you can attend one or more! 

THIS WEEK:

The band's sound is explosive, yet personal, timelessly melodic, yet rippling with modern muscle. Through fresh and unexpected arrangements of age-old tunes, compelling and topical originals and covers, delivered with unparalleled musicianship, Solas continues to define the path for the Celtic music world and drive the genre forward.
